Friday night it was late
I was walking you home we got down to the gate
And I was dreaming of the night.
Would it turn out right?
How to tell you girl
I want to build my world around you.
Tell you that it's true
I want to make you understand
I'm talkin about a lifetime plan.

That's the way it began
We were hand in hand, Glenn Miller's Band
Was better than before
We yelled and screamed for more.
And the Porter tune (Night and Day)
Made us dance across the room.
It ended all too soon.
On the way back home
I promised you'd never be alone.

Hurry don't be late,
I can hardly wait.
I said to myself, when we're old,
We'll go dancing in the dark,
Walking through the park
And reminiscing.

Friday night it was late
I was walking you home we got down to the gate
And I was dreaming of the night
Would it turn out right?
Oh, as the years roll on,
Each time we hear that favorite song
The memories come along.
Oh, the times we're missing
Spending the hours reminiscing.
